Hello all of you people of Parimi Alca!
Have you noticed that we don’t have a title for ourselves? I mean, are we Parimi Alcaran? *squints* And we don’t even know what this random world around us is? We have no culture, no history, no sayings or pets.

@rachelle It’s not very often that I get to meet someone with more siblings than me! (I have nine.) What’s the boy/girl ratio in your family? (Mine is evenly split: 5/5.) What number are you?
